WWI: Death Mountain - 3D Art WIP thread
Hello everyone. I've been busy working on a Lee Enfield model for my WWI: Death mountain mod. I've also been making some crates. Bear with me, I've only been modelling/texturing for a small amount of time (roughly 2-3 months, off and on) but I am ready to present...
Lee Enfield v1.0

The wood texture and the model is more or less final. It comes to 2020 tri's so I am very happy with the result. The metal texture is very much in the work in progress phases. Note that I omitted some details and changed a few things from the actual Lee Enfield so as to work in SWBF2 better.
Now, onto my...

Looking good Zwyx, particularly for someone who's only been doing this for 2-3 months. You should have seen me at 3 months, I was awful. *shudders*

Re: WWI: Death Mountain - 3D Art WIP thread
Snowy crate looks pretty good. I like it! It's a simple model with a decent texture. I do think the icicles look a bit odd.

Re: WWI: Death Mountain - 3D Art WIP thread
The icicles may look a tad odd, yes. They are a squished, subdivided cube. I could do better, but they look okay ingame and I like them. I'm glad you like the texture, it took a while to make (even with tutorials) so I'm proud of it

to add an awesome touch to them, make them transparent.

I like it! I hope you can get a nice sound effect to go with it.

Appreciate it cress! As for the sound, if Marth8880 would ever answer back on steam, I would like to ask him if he could do the sounds. If not, I can hopefully make a .wav file and have someone else compile it.
On another note, current triangle count is just under 800, not too shabby!
EDIT:
My first player model, weighted, enveloped, and ingame successfully! Screenshots:

This british rifleman looks really nice, also the revovler
But the rifleman textures could need some work. Looks a bit like a farmer

Re: WWI: Death Mountain - 3D Art WIP thread
The textures are supposed to look like rough fabric, though I will admit he does look somewhat like a farmer.
I will see what I can do to fix that.

Re: WWI: Death Mountain - 3D Art WIP thread
I suggest making some pockets, insignia, etc. for his jacket so it doesn't all have the same look. Also I think the UVs on the arms are a bit hasty. You could try redoing them based on a stock model.
EDIT: Plus, his wrist glove gap thing should be smoothed out, I think.

Re: WWI: Death Mountain - 3D Art WIP thread
Heres a small update for you guys.
British Rifleman V1.2
https://www.dropbox.com/s/1iwkzf70c2r71 ... ved001.PNG
Changelog:
And now, for the...
Mills Bomb V1.0
While you may think that a grenade model goes unnoticed, I think that it can make a world of difference. Hence, I made myself a Mills Bomb.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/k2chb0wafyy3n ... omb003.PNG
just under 300 tris. Well that probably is a tad much for a grenade model, any less than that and it looks rather poor. I could maybe go without bevelling, but I like my Mills Bomb the way it is. Mills bomb texture made by me, British flag from google images.

Appreciate it.
Expect a map update at some point tomorrow. It has been severely overhauled.

The british soldier is not looking like a farmer anymore
Can´t wait to see the map update.

I'd like to point out that the British never plastered a huge Union Jack on their uniform.

Re: WWI: Death Mountain - 3D Art WIP thread
Thanks for the references THEWULFMAN. I am going to overhaul the unit this week, giving him a new torso, re-doing the texture (again), and finally giving him the trench coat and pouches for ammo. This is my biggest project, which I expect will take longer than my Lee Enfield. Im looking forward to it! 
EDIT:
The map is almost done being re-worked too. Im doing both at once. Glad your looking forward to the update.
